Before moving to Texas 12 years ago I was very much a "rifle guy", AK's SKS's a couple bolt guns and .22 semi autos, and I was fairly proficient. Moving to Texas turned me into a "pistol guy" due to the easy accessibility to any range past 25 yards. Whelp, this weekend I bought and put together another bolt gun for the purpose of "long range" shooting probably not past 500 yards. What I acquired is a Remington 700p in .308 with which I promptly installed a muzzle break and mounted a Vortex 6-24 x 50 optic. Today I got it out to the range and I am not disappointed. Only 100 yards today but hopefully I can get out to farther ranges in the future.

Re: The Cycle Comes Full Circle
Very nice.
What kind of muzzle break?
And what did the install entail?

Re: The Cycle Comes Full Circle
Not sure of the brand actually, I'm not horribly brand conscious, but it was one of 2 5/8x24 7.62 brakes on the shelf (just checked the receipt, it's a Midwest Industries brake). Install entailed unscrewing the thread protector from the muzzle, sliding on the crush washer and screwing her on.
